The Drinking Jim Crow Lyrics - Guided By Voices

(R. Pollard) 

Ahhhhhhh, I have emotional scars 

Ahhhhhhh, I don't understand what your saying 

Ahhhhhhh, It's an accomplice of mine (Drowning in the commerce of life) 

Feeeeling somethings going to blow 

and watch where you go 

I'm the drinking Jim Crow 

Ahhhhhhh, Did you know it a traditional game 

Ahhhhhhh, and we market it as a (and got out every morning, I feel like) 

nasty little nation 

drinking from the fire in the well 

Extracting all the venom from the snake

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

Be careful you know 

I'm the drinking Jim Crow 

May the best things be stolen (and the blessings bestowed) 

and the costumes be clothes (we froze) 

and the night an oasis (the master of races) 

and the haunted faces (makes fun pointed faces) 

and the killing of time 

I'm the drinking Jim Crow 

better look where you go 

better look where you go
